We really enjoyed our stay at this property. It was clean and quite comfortable for the four of us. Walking distance to the plaza with amazing food and 11 minutes from the Opera House was wonderful and air conditioning appreciated. Nice to know someone was on call should we need anything at all.

Lovely casita close to plaza

Perfect cozy casita for a relaxed and enjoyable visit to Santa Fe. We had everything we needed to kick back at the end of the day and just be. The rooms were comfortable and the art made it homey.

Great place to stay in Santa Fe

We loved the casita - the location is good, a short walk to the plaza which we didn't mind. Very quiet, which we appreciated, and the casita was perfect for 2 couples. Comfortable and clean, lovely patio.

The house is lovely! * Lovely local decor * Easy / well equipped kitchen * Beds are super comfortable, plenty of hangers in closets, good towels, nice amenities (hand soap, shampoo, conditioner)* The location is GREAT for walking to Santa Fe downtown, very easy, flat and easy to walk. * Lovely outside patio, very private and pretty especially at night. We loved it!! And would definitely book again!!
